Search in Acrobat 9 does not work

In older versions of acrobat I could insert keywords in the Document Properties window, and the search for these keywords multiple PDF documents in a folder.  After the upgrade to Acrobat 9 search feature no longer works.  What should I do to activate again.  For me, this is a very important feature.

The best way to search is not via the insertion of keywords, but using Acrobat Catalog to index the words in different pdf files. In Acrobat 9: Advanced-> treatment-> indexes in full text with the catalogue of the documents.

  • Search for Time Machine does not work in the mail.

    Hello

    I'm trying to retrieve/view old e-mail my Time Machine ups back. I am backup on an external hard drive.

    When I get TM since the Mail, search application 'in time' does not work. If I go TM said Finder, or from the desktop, it works fine.

    I had to reinstall my OS and am trying to update on El Capitan, (thanks to the kind assistance of AppleCare!), but in the meantime I am eager to find those old emails.

    Any suggestions please? Thank you.

    Although you can restore a snapshot of Time Machine messages in the Mail application, it usually will not work with messages that were saved by an outdated version of the mail. In this case, you must use another method.

    Please triple - click anywhere in the line below on this page to select:

    ~/Library/Mail

    Right-click or Ctrl-click on the highlighted line and select

    Services ▹ Open

    the contextual menu.* should open a folder.

    Enter Time Machine and scroll to the snapshot that you want to restore from. The folder named "Mail" are subfolders named "V2" and/or "V3" (according to the version of Mac OS X that was used at the time that the snapshot was taken.) Inside of one of these subfolders are several subfolders representing your e-mail accounts. The name refers to the email addresses that you use. Select the account folders you want and then select restore... to... in the action menu (gear icon) in the toolbar of the Snapshot window. Restore the files on the desktop and not in their original location.

    Import the mailbox in the folders that you restored to the office. The imported messages appear in a new mailbox. Move those you want to keep everywhere where you want and delete the rest. Then, delete the files on the desktop.

    * If you do not see the item context menu copy the selected text in the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination. In the Finder, select

    Go ▹ go to the folder...

    from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens by pressing command + V. You won't see what you pasted a newline being included. Press return.

I use a MAC and Chrome as a browser.

    Can you help me?

    If you use Adobe Reader, you will not be able to create a PDF file. Adobe Reader cannot create a PDF file, modify/edit the content of a PDF page or export the contents of a PDF page.

    For those, you must use Acrobat or one of Adobe's online subscription services.

  • Search by name function does NOT WORK.

    Before reading further, make a note of this: I have ALREADY installed the add-on "Search by name", and it DOES NOT WORK. By result, please do not suggest this add-on as a solution to my problem, since the module IS my problem.

    I used Firefox ESR 10.0.11 and was forced to switch to 17.0.7 yesterday, even though my cfg file is set to not allow updates. Since the upgrade, searching by name function has stopped working, that is to say: I used to be able to type "yahoo" in the address bar and go directly to yahoo; now, when I type everything that is not a full URL in the address bar, he goes to allied.com. I've been in: config and changed the keyword: URL to http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8 & oe = UTF - 8 & sourceid = navclient & gfns = 1 & q = and have also installed the add-on search by name. None of these work. Please help me.

    Because of this definition of the keyword. URL pref stay?

    If you do not keep the changes after a reboot or have problems with preferences, see:

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).

    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe or make changes.

    Do a check with some malware malware, analysis of programs on the Windows computer.

    Please scan with all programs, because each program detects a different malicious program.

    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before scanning.

    Alternatively, you can write a check for an infection rootkit TDSSKiller.

    Hi sabah salah.

    If this MESSAGE IS NOT SUBSEQUENTLY REPLACED BY THE GOOD CONTENT OF THE DOCUMENT, YOUR PDF READER is perhaps NOT ABLE to DISPLAY THIS TYPE OF

    The message above is displayed for a particular type of PDF form called 'dynamic XFA form' (co-written with Adobe LiveCycle Designer).

    Unfortunately, applications mobile of Acrobat Reader (for iOS, Android, Windows Phone) do not support dynamic XFA forms.

    Would you please open the form in the desktop of Acrobat Reader on your Windows or Mac computer version and fill it?

  • New Acrobat DC does not work on iPhone 4 (7.1.2)

    Is there anywhere I can access/reinstall the app previous version, which worked on 7.1.2? Can't find it in iTunes or App Store, only the new version.

    Acrobat app auto update and now will not work. Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you!

    Jerry

    Hi Jerry,

    Unfortunately, Apple (not Adobe) does provide some options to downgrade iOS nor any apps, iOS (from the App Store).

    For example, once that you upgrade your operating system on your iPad/iPhone to iOS to iOS 7 8, you cannot go back to iOS 7 (unless your iPad/iPhone is jailbroken).

    Similarly, the Apple App Store detects the iOS on your iPhone/iPad operating system and selects the latest compatible version of an application.  The App Store does not have the user interface (dialog or list) with several versions of the application for users (like you) to choose.

    If you have a full backup of your iPad/iPhone before installing the latest version of Acrobat Reader for iOS, you can restore it and disable the automatic update to app.

    Could you describe the problems you have experienced with the latest version of Acrobat Reader for iOS?  Be very specific.  We can try to fix it if we understand what you don't like about it.

    Thank you.

  • How can I change the search engines if /searchreset does not work?

    I just upgraded to 23 FF, and it or some other setting changed my default Yahoo search engine. I want to go back to Google, which I think is the default value. Another thread of support was driven to https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/, but that has not worked. I went in: config and Yahoo changed to Google on several lines, but it did nothing. I tried to change the searchreset.backup.keyword.URL and the keyword. URL, but they would not change the setting Yahoo.

    Not only is my default stuck with Yahoo, but even if I click on the arrow pointing downwards in the search box, I can not select a different search manually engine. The drop down menu shows me a list of search engines, but by selecting one of them has no effect. Help?

  • Search in win 7 does not work

    I'm running Win 7 ultimate in a virtual machine under Parallels on an iMac. In general, everything is smoothly for more than a year. However, the search function of Windows 7 is completely dead. It is not serious what I get or what directory I am, Win 7 is not even start looking. If I try to add a supplementary search as a date criterion, it does not help, either. Is it necessary to activate it first in some way? I checked under default programs in Control Panel and Windows Search Explorer says "this program has all its faults." What I am doing wrong?

    Hello


    Have you made changes on the computer before this problem?
    Your index requires virtually no maintenance. However, if the index find the files you know problems must be located in an indexed location, you might need to rebuild the index. This can take a long time to complete, so avoid this step unless you have given the index enough time (several hours) to correct the problems first. To rebuild the index:
    Method 1:
    a. open indexing and Search Options by clicking the Start button, click on the Control Panel, clicking system and Maintenance, and then clicking Indexing Options.
    b. click Advanced Options, click the index settings tab and then click on rebuild. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    Method 2:

  • Search in HTML Help does not work with the help of Web to CHM converter script

    Hello

    My problem is simple:

    In fact, we use a simple HTML help with a chm file.

    The WebHelp offers more possibilities and the new script in RobotHelp 10 prupose for generate a WebHelp in a chm file, so perfect!

    But when I use the Web Help for CHM converter script, I generate a good chm file, I open it and do a search. The page on that research are based, but when I want to open one, I always have a message "this program cannot display this webpage".

    For more information, the search function works well when I do a simple HTML.

    Thank you in advance for your reply,

    François

    Hello

    How this may or may not work may depend on where the CHM is when you open it. It is on your C drive? If this isn't the case, it must be.

    In addition, if you copied it, it is possible you have to right click and choose "Unlock" in the property sheet.

    See you soon... Rick
